man, this one is a heated debate...
unfortunately, there's alot of misinformation that's spread via social media, and GMO's have gotten a pretty bad rep, based on what's probably alot of faulty "science." I was deep into the whole anti-GMO conspiracy camp; thankfully, I eventually cracked out to see the other side of the story...
I found this was one short, fun video in particular that really clarified alot:
Also found The Genetic Literacy Project to be a great source of balance, science-based info - both their website and Facebook group...
That is indeed a pretty nice video, and makes a convincing argument in favor of the technology. :)
